tees valley inclusion project
Middlesbrough
Our approach is to work collaboratively with local partners to provide
appropriate interventions and offer the support to women and families. The main
programme of work will help to meet the needs of BME women and individuals in
the Tees Valley area in areas of social and emotional well-being. Our aim is to
provide activities and awareness of good health, equality of opportunity and
employment initiatives which promote social inclusion whilst recognising
cultural diversity.The Tees Valley Inclusion Project CIC established in December
2011 has been established as a direct result of the identified gaps which exist
for BME women living and working in the sub-region of the North East of England.
The project will work in partnership with key services which adresss social
inclusion and provide well researched interventions which respond to the
inequalities that exisit for BME women, where possible we will deliver specific
programmes where mainstream provision does not meet current provision. Our aim
of provding culturally appropriate services delivered by local women is at the
core of what we do, the reason we have established innovative programmes in the
heart of the Tees Valley.
